Abstract (en)
[origin: EP1059683A2] A bussing structure for bussing current within an electrochemical cell. The bussing structure includes a first plate 1 and a second plate 2 , each having a central aperture 10 therein. Current collection tabs 22, extending from an electrode stack 20 in the electrochemical cell, extend through the central aperture in the first plate, and are then sandwiched between the first plate and second plate. The second plate is then connected to a terminal on the outside of the case of the electrochemical cell. Each of the first and second plates includes a second aperture 6 which is positioned beneath a safety vent in the case of the electrochemical cell to promote turbulent flow of gasses through the vent upon its opening. The second plate also includes protrusions 4 for spacing the bussing structure from the case, as well as plateaus 12 for connecting the bussing structure to the terminal on the case of the electrochemical cell. <IMAGE>
